Covers Golf Contest Week 8 Standings

Congrats to alangrrbs and sairjordan23 on the winning Adam Scott pick....always HUGE in a double points week.

How do you do the scoring in the double points week with the winner?  Take the combined scores of the golfers and add the winner bonus and then double it?  Or take the combined scores, double it and then add the bonus...

Adam Scott -12  x2  =  -24  +10 bonus  =  -34 for the week

Winner of the week was alangrrbs at -38

Loser of the week was qball1324  at +54



That's the power of double points!!

Got it.  Thanks

You'd think running this fukcing competition for 3 years would give me a slight advantage...

We have hit the quarter mark of the contest...amazingly.

As I mention every year...it's crucial to plan out how you use the big boys for the double points weeks.  So what I like to do at each 8 week interval is show how many of the top 20 golfer we have all used according to the World Golf Rankings.  New guys are almost always at the top of the list, while us veterans know to save to big hitters for the end.  Figuring we are 25% of the way through the season, it should be pretty close to 3-6 out of the top 20 used...if you are above that you might want to reign it in a bit!!

Stockpiling them lol

shouldn't I have been +44 for this week, not +54

CM if it's double points week and everything was doubled .. Why isn't the winner points doubled to 20 ? Not trying to make a bid deal , just wanted some clarity .. Thanks

AJ has a beautiful trophy waiting for the winner with your name misspelled. Lol, FML!

Good catch qball...it doesn't affect your positioning, but the changes have been made

The winner bonus is a -10 no matter what sairjordan...just the players scores are doubled.
